Lil B “I Want Your Bitch” (Prod by Emynd)

So I flew out to the Bay this summer to build with young homie Lil B the Based God (aka Lil B from The Pack aka “the Rawest Rapper Alive”) who is not only the king of Myspace (over 100 myspace pages!), but he’s also one of the nicest, most genuine, interesting, good hearted, and talented people I’ve ever met. Truly blessed to have this dude in my life. He definitely makes some eccentric music and I’m really happy to be working with dude. The first youtube posted above is a song we threw together this summer that we didn’t really get to finish up, but he went ahead and threw it on his latest mixtape 6 Kiss anyway. I ain’t mad though! It sounds kinda good even though there’s some really rough bits–kind’ve adds to the aesthetic. That being said, most of “6 Kiss” is substantially better than this track (and not quite as uhm, vulgar?). Need proof? Check the video for “Myspace” also above which is a tremendous mixtape cut. B just murders it on that ish.

But, anyway, consider this an introduction to me and homie. Hopefully we’re going to be building on a lot of stuff in the future and I’m really excited about it. He’s all over the place musically these days working with folks as disparate as Soulja Boy and Diplo on the latest Gucci tape. I’ve posted our song for download below if you’re into it, but please support the dude by copping the “6 Kiss” album on Amazon (by the way, I’m Thraxxx is also worth your money!). I’ve really never met a kid more devoted to putting out art and he really puts everything into it. There’s nobody in the world I want to succeed more than Lil B and I really encourage you to support artists like this with your hard earned cash.

Don’t forget to follow his ass on twitter!

I AM A NERD

I dunno if most of the folks that come to this site know this about me, but I’m first and foremost a huge rap dork. I grew up listening to rap music for my entire life and spent a good portion of my high school years totally nerding out and trading tapes of hard-to-find West Coast Underground rap with folks all across the globe. I posted a bunch of rare Project Blowed stuff over at CBRAP HERE and HERE and if you’re at all into adventerous rap music, I highly suggest you swing by and check that shit out.

Jimi Hendrix + Foxy Brown = Foxy Lady

I don’t think this ever made its way onto anything official so I ripped it from a Killer Kuts 12″ I have. It’s a really fucking dope track. Foxy does her thing on it and Just Blaze (I think) kills the beat. Usually super obvious samples like this don’t work well, but this shit totally knocks. Additionally, I made a drum edit of the original Jimi Hendrix track to knock in the clubs. Just looped up some open drums from the Foxy track and produced around the Hendrix song. I think it’s pretty dope and should work well in the clubs for the right crowd (it goes in my “Rock Dance” folder in Serato). Thoughts and comments always appreciated.

LEGENDARY LOCAL DJ INTERVIEWS LEGENDARY INTERNATIONAL DJ FROM SAME LOCALE

Mr. Bliz got his journalism on this weekend by “interviewing” (if you can really call it that) troubled-Philly-kid-turned-international-
superstar-DJ, Mr. DJ AM. His story is certainly an inspiring one, regardless of how brief this interview is. If you have 16 seconds to spare, you can check the entirety of the interview HERE.

All jokes aside, shouts to the fine folks of Phrequency who are really doing a fine job of documenting the Philadelphia nightlife scene. And, they refered to Bliz as a “legendary local DJ” in the story! GET EM BLIZ!

MF Doom “Gazzillion Ear” (Thom Yorke Remix)

I try to stay away from posting stuff if I don’t think its particulary good, but Thom Yorke remixing MF Doom is interesting enough to post whether or not it’s any good.

John Forte “Running Up That Hill”

Uh, this is weird. I can’t tell if it’s good, but I definitely think it’s blog worthy. John Forte remaking Kate Bush’s 1985 “Running Up That Hill.
